Elf HD Blush - Review

Ello
Lovelies!

Elf are brilliant for their sales and up until recently I've been very good at
resisting them... Well that changed! I took full advantage of one of their
recent 50% off sales and got a whopping £60 worth of products (that i don't
really need) for a mere £30, considering how cheap Elf is already that means a
LOT of stuff! If you've seen my recent Lust List post you would have spotted
this little beauty on it, the only thing i actually "needed" from
Elf. I previously purchased another, brighter shade and was desperate to get my
hands a more wearable option, so here it is in the form of Headliner!

Elf
HD Blushes are the copycat version of the MUFE HD ones, but not owning any of
them i can't really compare the two, sorry! But after trying these i have no
real urge to try the much more expensive option. Liquid blushes with a pump
like these get rid of all the ickyness of having to dip your fingers into a pot
to apply, just pump out what you like and blend away! I will say they do pump
out far too much product, so a lot is wasted but at £3.75 for 10ml I'm really
not complaining.
Headliner is one of the more wearable shades of the 5 available and I'm a
little bit smitten with it. Its a gorgeous pink that in my opinion leans ever
so slightly purple, making it great for fair - mediumish skin tones. These have
a velvety smooth texture which is a little drier than all the cream blushes
I've tried in the past, but i feel this adds to the wear time of it. They are
extremely pigmented so a little bit goes a long, long way! Due to the drier
formula they take a little bit more effort to blend than your average cream
blush but it's not something that bothers me.

Overall I'm pretty darn pleased with this purchase from Elf. I'd go as far to say that in my opinion these might be the best cream/liquid "drugstore" blushes available on the market. Yep, a bold statement there from me but i really am impressed!
